Invitation: Picqer Session #17 in Turnhout (BE)
Practical warehouse tips for online stores
What challenges do you face in your warehouse? Are you missing the knowledge or experience to optimize your operations? And how can you do it in a simple way?
We believe that anyone can run a professional warehouse, but sometimes you need a little help. That’s why the next Picqer Session is all about practical warehouse tips.
This time, we’re heading to Turnhout, Belgium, on Thursday, March 27. Everyone with a warehouse is welcome—you don’t need to be a Picqer user. Plus, participation is free!
What to expect?
In this Picqer Session, we’ll share practical tips you can implement immediately to improve your warehouse operations—all on your own and without any investment. Our advice is based on years of experience and numerous warehouse visits.
Take the opportunity to meet other e-commerce entrepreneurs and exchange experiences! And of course, we’ll provide a delicious lunch.
Please note that this Picqer Session will be in Dutch.
Will you join us?
Participation is free, but please sign up here. We’d love to see you there!

Changelog: Tasks and more
February was largely dedicated to the new way of receiving purchase orders. Since the launch on February 10, we have implemented many small improvements. Thank you for all your feedback! In addition, we have been working on a new feature that gives you control over everything that needs to be done in the warehouse. We're excited to tell you more about it.
New: Tasks
In a warehouse, besides picking orders and receiving purchase orders, many other tasks need to be performed regularly. Think of sweeping aisles, restocking packing tables, or counting stock. With Tasks, you can easily track and delegate these activities in Picqer, ensuring nothing is forgotten. This saves you from needing an extra tool!
Tasks are visible to everyone, so it’s always clear what still needs to be done and what has already been completed. When creating a task, you can set a deadline—handy for tasks that must be carried out at a specific time of day. And to delegate tasks, you can also assign them to a colleague, who will then receive a notification upon opening Picqer.
Curious? Create your first task or check out the help page.
Other improvements
- When exporting shipments, you can now choose to include cancelled shipments.
- With the MyParcel integration, you can now also choose DHL Parcel Connect and DHL Europlus.
- Fixed: When switching the packing station on mobile (Android), you now remain within the app.
- Fixed: When adjusting a product's tags, you will now also see this reflected in the date the product was last updated.
Invitation: Picqer Session #16
Reusable shipping packaging: the future of e-commerce?
Next week on Thursday, February 27, we’re hosting a new Picqer Session! In this interactive event, we’ll be exploring the future of shipping packaging with Lucas Hullegie, co-founder of BOXO.
No traditional sales pitch, just an open conversation about how reusable packaging can help meet changing customer expectations, reduce costs, support sustainability goals, and align with your own values as an entrepreneur. Participation is free, and we’d love to see you there.

New to our team: Rick and Bram
Meet our new colleagues, Rick and Bram! They’d love to introduce themselves and share a bit about what they do at Picqer.
Rick Gout
Hi! My name is Rick. Together with my colleagues from the Product team, I work on building a solid and scalable technical foundation that allows Picqer to keep evolving. I love that I get to contribute to a tool that helps so many businesses work more efficiently and effectively!
I live in the beautiful city of Zwolle with my wife and our Alaskan Malamute, Apollo. In my free time, I enjoy riding my motorcycle, gaming, playing board games, meeting up with friends, or simply taking a relaxing walk with the dog. I also love to travel—I've just returned from an incredible trip to Japan.
Bram Zegwaart
Hi! I'm Bram. What I enjoy most about my work is making customers genuinely happy. That’s why I collaborate with the Support and Customer Success teams to turn Picqer users into Picqer ambassadors. What really appeals to me about Picqer is that we’re encouraged to take the time to truly listen to customer questions, ask the right follow-ups, and provide answers that aren’t just helpful now but will continue to be valuable in the future.
I live in the historic town of Weesp with my girlfriend Milou and our children, Lou (4) and Daan (2). A lot of my time goes into family life, but outside of that, I'm a huge soccer fan, I play tennis at least twice a week, and I love cooking up delicious meals on the Kamado grill. Right now, we’re actually on a dream trip—a three-month adventure through South Africa—where I’m working remotely.
